Finding a plant

Hi all, yesterday my first granddaughter was born, she weighed 8lb 2oz.

her name is Annabella, I have tried to find a plant of that name without success, if anyone knows of such a plant I would be so very grateful.

Thank you,

Merry Christmas..

  • Congratulations Alan you must be over the moon, There is a type of  Hydrangea called 'Annabella' they have an offer at the Crocus website was £16.99 down to £9.99, supplied a picture for you to have a look at, it kind of fits as it has a white flowing head like a snowball fits for this time of year. Hope it helps and congrats again Merry Christmas.

    I've found an anemone called Annabella Rose. The RHS says the only nursery supplying it is near Loch Ness, but they do mail order. But I think Hydrangea Annabelle looks lovely.

    Your a star Busy Lizzie, thank you image

  • Can I add my congratulations too?

    I'm not sure I would worry about the final letter!  There is a stunning iris called Annabelle Jane - just imagine a clump of those in front of Hydrangea Annabelle.
